Patrick Hesser

Patrick Hesser, 34 years old, was born in Morrisville, PA and died in Philadelphia, PA on September 22, 2026.

Patrick was the beloved son of Robert Hesser (Christina) and Margaret McDowell; devoted brother of Nicholas Hesser (Evelyn Fleisher), Zachary Hesser, and Laila Hesser; adoring uncle of Bianca Hesser; treasured grandson of Margaret Christman; and cherished fiancé of Sarah Catherine “Cat” Festa. He is pre-deceased by grandparents Maryann Hesser and Donald Hesser. Patrick also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Patrick was raised in Hunterdon County, NJ and graduated from North Hunterdon High School. He went on to graduate college with a degree in finance at the University of Pittsburgh. He worked in leasing and property management for much of his career, finding opportunities to enhance his knowledge and develop his skills with a variety of companies. He enjoyed traveling, exercising, reading and spending time with his friends and family. He also loved spending time with his beloved cats, being a pet dad of 4.

At the age of 34, Patrick left this world far too soon, leaving behind a life filled with laughter, love and unforgettable moments. Many lives were touched by his remarkable personality as he brought an energy into a room that made people feel seen and welcomed. His charming personality and infectious smile would brighten the room. Patrick was also faced with struggles and challenges in his life, but that was only part of his story and did not define the kind, loving and caring person who meant so much to so many. Despite, or perhaps because of his hardships he was able to make connections and identify the best parts of others. The world was a better and brighter place because he journeyed through it.

Patrick will be deeply missed and forever remembered as a beautiful son, grandson, brother, fiancé, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend.

Services will be held privately.
